 رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ وَاجْعَلْنَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ إِمَامًا 

O our Lord! Grant us in our spouses (husbands/wives) and offsprings (children and further generations) the coolness of eyes (peace, love, harmony, mutual respect, good communications) and make us leaders in piety (God fearing who guard themselves against all evils). 

Surah Al-Furqan, Ayaat 74 – The Holy Quran


My guiding principle behind my work is to help individuals and families practically live this ayah. 


I  help the Akhirah oriented families identify individual challenges, clarify long and short term goals, and provide communication tools and  techniques towards achieving these goals. I teach them how to motivate and encourage  their children from a psychological perspective in  sha Allah (God willing). These principles and practices are applicable to people from all religious backgrounds. You do not have to be a Muslim to benefit from them.

My story

I memorized the duaa (prayer/ supplication) from Surah Furqan in the Holy Quran before I was even married. It touched something deep in my heart. 


Although at that point, I did not think about children and coming generations but I was fascinated by the thought of how I could ever be a “muttaqeena imaama.” (leader of the pious). The word imam brought to my mind an image of an imam of a Masjid. I thought to myself - I am a woman. A girl can’t be an imam. So how can I be an imam of the muttaqeen? But I also thought God would not mention it if it was not possible. This thought kept rotating in my head day and night. I wanted to be the imam of mutaqeen but I couldn’t understand how.


Meanwhile, I started my studies in psychology on one hand, and religious education on the other. It was when I myself became a mother and started working with different children that God through His extreme mercy, guided me and answered the questions in my head. I found that as a parent I share the concern about our children’s success in life and afterlife with other moms as well. And that is where women and men as parents can be “muttaqeena imama” (leaders in piety). All the dots started to connect and I found my life’s purpose – of striving myself and helping other families work towards being true leaders. 


I am now learning more and more about psychology and behaviour therapy on one hand and Quran and sunnah on the other; and connecting them all together. I utilize these insights to then enable parents to connect with their children in such a way that both the parents and the children are happy and healthy. And together they keep strengthening their spiritual connections.

my mission

A strong community is build up of several strong families. A family is where we learn to bond powerfully with each other and at the same time, give each other space and freedom for individual expression. My mission is to provide a helping hand while you are putting together the building blocks of your family - faith, fulfillment and leadership. 


FAITH

Seeking from God

The connection between family members is a direct mercy from God. It is already there. We are not going to create something new but I will help you re-discover that connection, approach it in an effective way and develop it further.


FULFILLMENT

Coolness of the eyes

It takes more than desire, passion and persistence to overcome the modern day strains and challenges and build a fulfilling family life. This requires learning and practising effective strategies for developing a healthy mutual connection and communication. It leads to peace of mind at home and a happier, healthier family life. It brings about powerful connection between parents and children without a constant power struggle.


LEADERSHIP

Striving for the highest level

Clear, authentic, effective, loving, empathetic and respectful interactions within the family are one of the biggest sources of strengths for any person. An empowered family is a breeding ground for leaders. Leaders – that work together as a team. Leaders - that have high standards. Leaders - that are educated in faith, morally sound, and generous. Leaders – that are “mutaqeen” (God fearing). These leadership characteristics manifest in all areas of our lives – personal, professional and social. 

MY 3D Approach

You will experience  with me a unique three dimensional holistic approach combining: 

Scientific, 

Psychological and 

Religious perspectives. 


When families are faced with challenges, they look for solutions at two kinds of places: Modern psychologists/ therapists; or religious scholars (sheikhs/ sheikhas)


These are all great alternatives, each with their own strengths, but also inherent limitations. The therapists are experienced in digging in, probing, and identifying deeper challenges hidden under common problems. But, depending on their personal beliefs, they might not be “Akhirah” focused and faith might not be a big part of their professional practice.


On the other hand, our learned scholars have a depth of beautiful knowledge but they might not have the time or the experience to sit down with families one on one for several hours, probe and figure out what is happening in a particular household. For example, a sheikh will tell us the importance of praying, the intensity of the sin that we will get if we don’t pray, and the reward that we will get if we are teaching our children to pray. They will inspire us with beautiful hadith like “You are the shepherd of your flock”. They are the perfect people to help us find out what to do. However, the question that might remain unanswered is how to do it. How to approach the children in this time and age, through the physical and mental rush of day to day life, and a screen in their hands?


I address these gaps through a complete 3D approach – religious, scientific and psychological, all at the same time. My coaching practice is based on timeless Islamic principles. At the same time, it utilizes strategies, tips and techniques from modern psychology, behaviour training and coaching.
